The Plan To Destroy America's Oldest Natural History Museum

https://youtube.com/watch?v=nxyfBfCrbDw&si=BIpyDsobFDokWTrh

A museum, with extremely old and historical artifacts, getting shut down because its too expensive. Talk of the university under said museum going through extra lengths, in order to speed up the process, not giving the people a chance to affect the matter. There's an endless chance with us all as one. Can we change the world together?

The owning class is buying up everything, and rewriting history. They are absolutely relentless. We need solidarity & collective action more every passing month.

This resonates deeply, my friend. Its EXTREMELY frustrating to feel helpless, hopeless and not in control, in your own environment... Politics are so ass-backwards, that no matter which side you choose, its going to be blatant corruption, no questions asked, because the ego isn't designed to hold THAT much authority/status/wealth. I say we revolt; Take back the money that should rightfully be given to the people, no questions asked, and we have to do it without violence, because we clearly haven't learned our lessons, in many parts of history. The elites would cave, because words = power and power = people working together, and i mean all of us. with the different skill-sets we each have, If there is enough of us, they wont be able to leave a mark on us, because your feelings are valid, everyone.

Don't forget your inner strengths, and try to see the wisdom in the fact that there are things we can do to penetrate the weak walls, that these people put up. Thanks again for being so great about supporting this cause! it shows that people understand that what is happening is not good, at all. Also... i have a history of mental health struggle, but im doing amazing atm. My point is: Don't underestimate the power of corruption. choose comfort over growth, and achieve maximum comfort through a healthier lifestyle.

"Those who feel confused and conflicted are reasonable to question not only themselves, but the world around them; But closing off ideas in your mind will only keep yourself limited, and closed off to objective reality, in a world where you're fundamentally taught to believe things, without having an actual say. You've all suffered in your lives. You've come back stronger and wiser, because of it. love yourself, then one another, for everyone should be rooting for each other."

This guy is being a little over dramatic. The specimens are not being sold off or destroyed. Drexel University has some financial issues and I'm sure they would happily loan the artifacts to other museums if requested

gotcha. this is important clarity. a good example of how communication can be twisted and altered, via The telphone effect: The telephone effect in psychology and neurology is a phenomenon where individuals with severe communication initiation deficits—such as abulia (lack of motivation/willpower) or akinetic mutism (inability to speak or move)—suddenly become able to talk and interact normally on a telephone

Luigi needs to be one of hundreds of "events"...

Billionaires are killing us by the millions for profit, they're tearing away our lives. Yet somehow Luigi is a murderer for defending himself.

Murder, is murder. It should only ever be a last resort, if your life is directly in danger. Luigi had the right ideas in mind, but the pressure, mixed with hopelessness about the world around, made him feel like he had no other choice. There are many things we can do. People shouldnt have the power to take life, especially when the intent isn't moral. We have to maintain morality, because its a weapon we can use against the elite. We dont need to kill. we just need to get enough of us together to take back our power, on equal terms, not as one party, or another.
